Earth Photo 2023 at the Sidney Nolan Trust
Earth Photo 2023 at the Sidney Nolan Trust, Herefordshire, from 13 July to 30 September 2023.
Created in 2018 by Forestry England, the Royal Geographical Society and Parker Harris, Earth Photo is a world-leading international programme engaging with still and moving image makers to showcase the issues affecting the climate and life on our planet. Earth Photo’s main objective is to reveal the narratives behind the pictures, encouraging conversations about our world, its peoples, environments, and the changing climate.
Photographers and filmmakers from across the globe entered their work in Earth Photo 2023. Out of over 1,400 entries, a judging panel made up of experts from the fields of photography, film, geography and environment selected the Earth Photo 2023 shortlist: 128 photos and videos by 50 photographers and 6 filmmakers. Eight outstanding photography and film projects were chosen as the Earth Photo 2023 award winners.
- Rodd Court by Alex Ramsay
- Mae Macadam Ice Waterfall
- Filippo Ferraro, Wooden Diamonds
- Anna Sellen, Meadow Study
The award-winning and a selection of the shortlisted images are displayed outdoors, at large scale in the grounds of the Sidney Nolan Trust near Presteigne. The Trust has awarded the Sidney Nolan Trust Residency Prize, a two-week residency at Nolan’s former home, The Rodd, to Anna Sellen, for her photograph Meadow Study.
Thirty photographs are presented outdoors in the beautiful gardens of The Rodd and include Anna Sellen’s work and the following award winners:
